Ode to Castlevania is the last DLC?

[Hakajisai]

I mean, poncle finally made what he wanted - a real castlevania game(kinda), he's job is now complete

I read his interview, where he says that he afraid VS will bloat because of so many DLC, lol

also, i have a feeling that Konami will release SotN on Steam in 2025, dunno, we have almost all Castlevanias now, except for this masterpiece

[Honorable Sir Ricard De Milos]

Yeah I wouldn't be surprised if this was the last DLC, but then again, I feel like this game's updates and DLCs are unpredictable! Maybe if he was contacted by a big name in the gaming industry, offering him "an offer he can't refuse", I'm sure he would be interested!

(I don't know Luca Galante at all, this is just a guess based on... Nothing, lol.)

[Hatsodoom]

There's still a lot on the Chaos Roadmap though, so there's more to come.

[Redblaze27]

Compared to DLC supported games that went on a while (Payday 2 & Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2), Vampire Survivors has the benefit of being dirt cheap.

Even off-sale, the game and all its DLC wont break the bank.

Those other games suffer from having an intimidating buy-in cost to newcomers.

[Brynub]

I'm lowkey hoping for more Konami crossovers now that we have both Contra AND Castlevania. Imagine Pyramid Head or Solid Snake running around in VS, or some wacky-ass Yugioh or Suikoden crossover since there's oodles of characters and monsters from both series to use.

[medion_no]

Theres a roadmoap and it would be silly to not keep adding stuff while its profitable, the castlevania dlc is bringing lots of new players.

[wafflekitty]

Yeah the roadmap still shows updates to come. Nothing else will be on the scale of the CV DLC though, I’m sure.

[Lipucd]

I know the last few updates made note there's at least another -direct- game DLC with new steam achievements being worked on. The colab DLC's don't add such (because no telling how long they'll even last for purchase before they get taken down and are lost forever), so the last 3 DLC's not altered that, only a few new things added to the base game inbetween.

Next up, Metal Slug, who's with me?!

Metal Slug, Metal Gear, heck even Silent Hill lmao.

Maybe Konami will ask Poncle to help revive one of their other franchises, Winning Eleven, with a DLC.

Metal Slug is SNK, not Konami. Although I do enjoy the franchise and would be okay with it getting crossover DLC.

[Handsome Hell]

Magaman please.

[Moonbane]

Yes, theres more to come. Its a golden goose for the devs, why would they stop? VS has become a phenomena and spawned a whole new genre of games by itself. Bullet Heaven games.

[Weyrlock]

Megaman and Metal Slug would be some of the easiest ones, they already have a good number of characters, maps and enemies designs that you could, theoretically straight up, copy into the game.
Some other franchises that people suggest, especially the ones that are not already from game themselves, I don't know if would be a good idea.

we havent found the vampire yet

one major plus is they can reuse many mechanics of the gameplay across many dlcs they create, which saves them alot of money v.s having to create more and more and more stuff
plus payday 2 and dbz xenoverse welp those require a bit more work when creating stuff
3d models, hitboxes being tougher, this game most likely is far from an easy code but those being more complex, dbz being a major name , payday became a major ish name but not well enough for fans to stick around for the 3rd

vampire survivors maps are small, they can easily set them up
which still takes a bit of time, though since most are simple there easy to make
the monsters are basic alot of the times
the game has alot of complex yet alot of simple things

sorry just a tired rant trying to puff out what im meaning to say, but dunno if im making correct sense of what im meaning

the game is simple yet complex at points, the same mechanics can be often reused
maps in sense are loops wide open or side scrolling
the majors are the skills items and such
